What is the number of moles of sulfur atoms present in n mole molecules of mustard gas?

What is the number of moles of sulfur atoms present in n mole molecules of mustard gas?
  1. n
  2. 3 n
  3. 2 n
  4. 4 n

Solution

Chemical formula of mustard gas is $\mathrm{ClCH}_2 \mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{SCH}_2 \mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{Cl}$ $\therefore \quad$ 'n' $\mathrm{mol} \mathrm{ClCH}_2 \mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{SCH}_2 \mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{Cl} \equiv \mathrm{n}$ mol S-atom
